Tom Kerns shows how youth climate leaders can form their own local Youth Climate Court, with youth judges, youth prosecuting attorneys and youth jury members and put their local city or county government on trial for not meeting its human rights obligations. Kerns describes how a Youth Climate Court works, how to start one, what human rights are, what they require of local governments, and what governmental changes a Youth Climate Court can realistically hope to accomplish. The book offers young activists a brand new, user-friendly, cost-free, barrier-free, powerful tool for forcing local governments to come to terms with their obligation to protect the rights of their citizens with respect to the climate crisis. This book offers a unique new tool to young climate activists desperate for genuinely effective ways to directly move governments to aggressively address the climate crisis"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Climatic changes $x Law and legislation $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Climatic changes $x Youth participation $x Youth participation $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Mock trials $v Juvenile literature. 650 7 $a Climatic changes $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00864251 650 7 $a Mock trials. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01024335 655 7 $a Juvenile works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411637 776 08 $i Online version: $a Kerns, Thomas A., 1942- $t Youth climate courts $d Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2022 $z 9781003217640 $w (DLC) 2021031291 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230517011448.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1DC59254BFA611ECA5AD8FDE3CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
